Memoriku provides convenience to immortalize Morians' precious moments through quality photobooks. However, before printing a photobook, there are several important things to check so that the print results are maximized and satisfying.
Here is a complete checklist that Morians can follow to select photos before printing a photobook in Memoriku that you can use as a guide.
Checklist of Things to Check Before Printing a Photobook
1. Photo Quality
Photo quality is the main factor that determines the results of photobook printing. High-resolution photos, ideally around 300 DPI, will produce sharp and detailed prints.
Avoid using low-resolution photos because they will look blurry or broken when printed. Also, pay attention to the color accuracy of the photo so that it matches the theme of the photobook and does not look faded or too contrasty.
2. Compliance with the Theme
Each photobook has a different theme, such as a wedding, vacation, or birthday. Make sure the photos you choose fit the theme so that the story in the photobook feels complete and interesting.
For example, for a wedding photobook, choose photos that show the couple's romantic moments and happiness.
3. Variation of Shooting Angles
To avoid monotonous photobooks, choose photos with a variety of shooting angles. Combine close-up photos, wide shots, and candid shots to provide interesting visual dynamics.
This variation also helps to show different sides of the same moment so that the photobook feels more alive and memorable.
4. Diversity of Moments
A good photobook should showcase a variety of moments, from the main moments to the small, memorable moments.
For example, in a vacation photobook, in addition to scenery photos, also include photos of daily activities, food, and interactions with local people. This makes the photobook more personal and complete.
5. Ideal Number of Photos
The ideal number of photos depends on the theme and number of pages of the photobook. As a general guide, a baby photobook can be 20-30 pages, while a wedding or vacation is usually 30-40 pages.
Try not to stack too many photos on one page so that each photo still gets attention and doesn't look messy. A neat and balanced layout will enhance the aesthetics of the photobook.
6. Tools to Help with Selection and Grouping
Utilizing digital tools for photo selection and grouping is very helpful in the selection process.
Morians can use applications that can delete duplicate photos, sort by date, and mark favorite photos.
This speeds up the selection process and ensures that only the best photos make it into the photobook.
7. Format and Upload to My Memory
Once the photo is selected, make sure the photo file format complies with the provisions in Memoriku, usually JPEG or PNG with high resolution.
Upload photos to the Memoriku platform through the features provided, then start designing a photo book with an easy-to-use template. Make sure to double-check the layout and quality of the photos before placing a print order.
